Marvin Gaye is a legend that is a known fact around the world I believe. So anything I say after that may just be reconfirmation of what’s in the hearts of his millions of fans. The man is great. My favorite Marvin Gaye song is Trouble Man, as …

Faaip De Oiad is a song by Tool which appears on their record Lateralus. The song starts out with some synthesizers and background noise which sets up a very eerie atmosphere which surrounds this entire album. Thus far the sound is very unsettling and once the chaotic drum pattern …

Knowing that I have wanted to learn to play the drums for years, my daughter and son-in-law bought this set for me for Christmas a couple of years ago. I don’t know what they paid for them since it was a gift but I know that they have been …

I really enjoy the simplicity of this track. The gentle opening and how gradually it starts to develop into what is just a great sounding track.
Again, it’s Gary Barlow behind it, the writer and the driving force behind Take That.
As a performance it does build gradually, it doesn’t explode …

Willie Nelson does this song called If I can Find A Clean Shirt. My first thoughts were that it was an odd name for a song. I thought it was a song about someone who feels sorry for Willie Nelson because he couldn’t find a clean shirt. …

Eleanor Rigby is a song by The Beatles which appears on their record Revolver. McCartney takes lead vocals on this track and I’m actually pretty surprised about this because this song always struck me more as a Lennon composition. I say this because Eleanor Rigby is extremely well developed …

Penny Dreadfuls is a song by Animal Collective which appears on their debut record Spirit They’ve Gone, Spirit They’ve Vanished. Opening up with some background noise, a piano gradually joins the track before the vocals also come in. In strict contrast to the previous instrumental track, Untitled, the tone …

The artist Two Steps From Hell was created circa 2006 by Thomas J. Bergeson and Nick Pheonix. I would most likely compare their sound to the likes of Hans Zimmer, Audiomachine, and Immediate Music. It’s mostly dramatic/ intense music for stuff like movie trailers.
What I really like about their …

This is the second album released from heavy metal superstars Avenged Sevenfold. In comparison to the first album —˜City of Evil’, it’s just as heavy, just as raw, and just as brilliant. If you’re not a fan of metal music then I would stop reading this review right now! Not …

Metallica Finally a wise decision to release the album, which may be therapeutic disappointment after the album St. Anger in 2003. Albums that can be included in the category of very bad and makes fans ask about what happened with that metal music icon. Although this album can not …

This little amp really packs a wallop. But the only problem I have is that the sound doesn’t have enough bass for my taste. The overdrive is very sharp and crisp. And this particular model is very very good for extremely crunchy guitar riffs. …

I highly recommend this album to all people who are into Indie music or alternative rock music.
There are several factors determining why my heart is so warm to this music. In the first place, I like music from the 1990s, 1990s is my favorite decade ever, and this …

“Speechless” by Lady Gaga is probably one of my favorite songs by her for the simple fact it justifies her fame more than anything else she’s recorded. Don’t get me wrong. I love pretty much all her songs but I think Speechless shows off how good her voice …

I have been married for 4 years now and before that was engaged for nine long years to the same man. All those years, some songs became a part of our love story. Most of these songs are just so amazing it speaks straight to the heart. Among …

After My Steve Vai Wah pedal blew a fuse I was very upset. This wah pedal was very expensive and allowed me to have alot of tonal control with the wah. Also when I went to guitar center I found out that my year warranty ran out. I had …

The Ballad Of Ira Hayes is a track by Bob Dylan which appears on his album Dylan. Apparently this song is a cover which is actually something that I was not aware of, but then again, I do remember that at least a few tracks on Dylan were cover …

80 is a song by Green Day which appears on their album Kerplunk. The track opens up with a sustaining guitar power-chord, but the real interest during the intro of the track is the bass line played by Mike Dirnt which serves as the main rhythm, along with a …

The Beyonce Knowles that used to be, wow, those were the days. This is the Beyonce whom we all know and love but, unfortunately, she doesn’t have it in her anymore, she’s been totally incapable of creating …

This is a song about a man making a woman happy. In our lives today, sometimes it is hard to tell what a woman really wants, especially in a relationship. When a man starts a relationship with a woman, he is basically taking a stab in the dark when …

“Brokenheartsville” is a song by country music artist Joe Nichols. Joe Nichols has been active on the music scene for over 10 years now and has had such hits as “I Will Wait For You” and “Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall off” However, in my opinion, this song stands …

Purify is a song by Metallica which appears on their album St. Anger. I’ve read that a lot of fans regard Purify to be the worst song on St. Anger but I don’t think I’d go that far. Purify doesn’t sound too bad as it opens up, well until …

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not usually a fan of upbeat, post-punk, bop-your-head-and-tap-your-toes Rock, but I unshamedly admit that when I put on ‘Almost Here’, not only does my head bop, but my whole body follows along in a strange, convulsing, toe-tapping mess.
The Academy Is’ first album, ‘Almost Here’, …

For those of you who don’t already know, Children of the Corn (not to be confused with the Stephen King book/movie) is a rap group that was formed in the early 90’s in Harlem, NY. This group consisted of Camron, Ma$e, Big L, Herb Mcgruff and Bloodshed. “Biscuits and …

Don’t matter by Akon is a song about how a guy and a girl are together but nobody wants them to be together. This song is my favorite but Akon is a nut now. This song is about a relationship the guy and the girl want to last …

This is my favorite Bryan Adams song. This is a rock song with energetic tunes, energetic steps, friendly lyrics. “Those were the best days of my life” punch line like this makes you feel nostalgic. Adams has sung this song in his typical unorthodox voice which some how suits …

In The Summertime is a song by Bob Dylan which appears on his album Shot Of Love. The track starts off with a pretty full sound right from the start with a guitar pattern, a drum rhythm, and a harmonica over the top of this. Dylan comes in with …

Love game is the third single of the album “The Fame” by Lady Gaga. It is an electropop song that is very successful in charts.
The music video is so scandalous that some channels banned it. I think this video is so amazing and joyful. I can feel the inspiration …

I love Coldplay. They have this style that no other band has. Chris Martin’s voice is so unique that when you hear him singing, you instantly know that it’s him. Before I bought this album, I would often listen to “Yellow” and “The Scientist”. The album X&Y has so …

The song ABC was recorded in 1970 which seems like a hundred years ago. Time really flies and though Michael Jackson and his brothers changed a lot in the years to follow, this song always remains true to what image we had of the Jackson family back in the …

Before the worldwide madness of EYE OF THE TIGER, Survivor were slowly making their way in the music scene and Premonition is their second album. Though 1981 is actually my birth year, my musical taste is actually quite large and i feel i know these albums just as well …

I love Musiq’s album Loveandmusiq, but I’m not really feeling this new album he has out. The album is selling like crazy, but I feel that it’s missing the great songs that would make it a great album.
I guess you can’t expect an artist to make a hit …

The rock band “3 Doors Down” was one of the most famous bands back in the early and mid 2000s when I was much younger. At the time when they were popular, I liked several of their songs but I didn’t consider myself as much of a fan. Now that …

The whole family are music lovers and keyboard music would be great to use for …

Black Crow Blues is a song by Bob Dylan which appears on Another Side Of Bob Dylan. Unlike a lot of Dylan’s earlier works, this track isn’t driven primarily by an acoustic guitar and Dylan’s voice, it’s driven by a piano and Dylan’s voice. Although this may not seem …

I just love this cd, this man is sooo talented and i would recommend eveyone to go and get this for your collection!!
His smooth, soulful voice is so powerful and unique.
A mixture of smooth soul and funk with maybe a little jazz in there too.
My favourite track on this …

Blackbird is a song by The Beatles which appears on their self-titled record, otherwise known as The White Album. Although I say that this is a song by The Beatles it’s really a Paul McCartney song as he’s the main writer, if not the only writer, and he is …

Use Your Illusion II is the second half of a double album released in 1991 by Guns N’ Roses. The album cover is identical except for the color layout. The album features an alternate version with alternate lyrics of Don’t Cry, the original is on the first. There is …

Probably the weakest Pink Floyd album ever. Actually, it’s not even a Pink Floyd album, maybe only in name, because it’s written, produced and perfomed by Roger Waters. I see it as a the third CD to the Wall pretty much, since it has the same style, musically. Thematically …

Overview - Desire, Bob Dylan’s seventeenth studio album, features a lot of storytelling lyrics and even biographical lyrics, as heard on Hurricane and on Joey. To be honest, most of these tracks just strike me as solid but there are also some tracks which I personally think are good …
